“Madison was able to come over last minute and squeeze some walks in with our energetic pups after a sudden schedule change messed up our prior arrangement. Immediate feedback and care provided to our high energy dogs. Highly recommend!”
About: I helped care for my family’s two cats since I was about five years old. One of whom was diabetic and needed insulin shots twice a day, which gave me experience giving injections. I have also volunteered with the Humane Society and helped to care for my neighbors' pets. My family now owns a dog (Juno) and I own a cat (Blue). I am a full-time student at UGA, so my schedule will change every semester. However, I almost always have time for pet care in the afternoons, on the weekends, and for holidays! Just discuss any needs with me and I will let you know what my specific day-to-day schedule is looking like. I engage and play with your pets to keep them entertained while also keeping them well-cared for and safe! I ensure that they enjoy their time with me and I with them.
“Ella was an outstanding dog walker for our pup. She was always prompt, caring, and communicative. She managed to craft unique messages each day, keeping us updated while we traveled, and took great pics. This resulted in worry-free travel for us and a great experience for our senior pup.”
“Jessica was great with our pups! She went above and beyond just their walks, making sure everything was okay when arriving and before leaving. Highly recommend Jessica to help with your pups.”
“Jennifer came through for Dani while I was away and provided great communication and photos to make sure my baby was taken care of! I know Dani is in good hands with her”
“Stephen was responsive and took excellent photos of Sarabi while watching her. He also alerted me of a problem with her treats and was willing to help out with the situation should the solution call for it, which was very much appreciated. Sarabi had a good time with him and was all smiles.”
“Maya was fantastic!! So nice and very communicative. I absolutely felt like my dog was in great hands. Would definitely use Maya again and would highly recommend to a friend!!”
About: I have taken care of and been best friends with cats and dogs all of my life. Nothing brings me more joy than loving and caring for an animal. I have collaborated with animal rescues on many occasions to provide assistance for needy animals and continue to be an advocate for animals. Pet care is something I am active in doing every day, as an owner of four cats. Every day is about feeding, watering, and litter box maintenance, in addition to plenty of love and attention (which is gladly NON-STOP). My number one priority is animal safety and owner-security. I always am very anxious leaving my animals in the hands of someone I don’t know very well and I can assure you that I will take the task of caring for your pet with the utmost importance.
“When I tell you she is absolutely amazing I mean it !! Not only did she put a puffer jacket on my dog when it was below 30 degrees outside without me saying anything ,she treated my dog like he was hers . I would hire her over and over again .”
About: Hello Everyone, My name is Fallon, I am 27 years old and I graduated from Auburn University with a degree in marketing. I am looking for various pet sitting jobs I can do while I am working remotely! I have been pet sitting and dog walking since I was in middle school and can provide recommendations if needed. I also have experience working in a doggy daycare as a canine coach. I have 2 cats of my own so I am very experienced with animals! I was a pre-vet major before I made the switch to marketing and took a non profit trip to Costa Rica where I assisted in surgery and administered medicine and other care to animals in need. I also administer medicine to 2 of my own pets daily so I am able and experienced to give medicine if needed. My hours are very flexible and I am free most days during the week. Because of my flexible schedule I am often times available the day of if needed. If anyone is looking for a pet sitter please feel free to contact me! I hope to hear from you soon -Fallon I am currently working remotely so I will have plenty of time to care for your furry friends! I am able to make visits multiple times a day also I like to make sure there are no areas the animals can get into that could be harmful. I like to keep my home and others clean and leave it as I found it.
About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals for as long as I can remember—cats, and a very energetic Dalmatian who definitely kept life interesting. My love for pet care started early, and I began pet sitting around age 12 for both dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. Since then, I’ve never really stopped. I’ve either had cats or dogs in my home my entire life, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of who I am. Today, I share my home with my two pups—a 6-year-old Maltipoo and a 2-year-old Schnoodle—who keep me laughing, active, and constantly reminded of how unique every pet’s personality can be. I’m happiest when I’m around animals, and I treat every pet I care for like one of my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, snuggles, or just keeping their routine consistent and comfortable, I focus on making sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously—while still bringing plenty of love, patience, and fun to every visit! Pet care fits naturally into my daily life because I’m currently not working a traditional job, which means I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to your pets. I’m able to provide consistent attention, care, and companionship throughout the day, whether that’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your pet company and making sure they feel comfortable and secure. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping them happy, safe, and comfortable in their familiar space. I follow your routine closely for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions so your pet feels secure and cared for. I take time to understand each pet’s unique personality and adjust my care to match—whether that means active play, calm companionship, or extra cuddles. I also treat your home with respect and make sure everything is left clean and as you left it. My goal is simple: happy pets, peace of mind for you, and care you can fully trust while you’re away.
About: I have 5+ years of experience caring for cats and dogs, particularly for my neighbors. I grew up with a dog and I am now a cat parent, so I have firsthand experience with pets. I have a deep passion and love for animals and enjoy meeting new ones. I’m a full-time student with a lot of free time during the week and on weekends. I can care for your pets on weekdays in the morning, afternoon, and evening. I am completely free on weekends and can care for pets whenever convenient for you. I have a cat at home and I spoil him with treats, fancy food, and cat toys. My family has a dog and I used to take her on walks, train her, and cuddle with her. I am extremely loving with pets and great at following instructions along with my experience making me a great pet sitter.
About: I have taken care of my own dogs and family and friends dogs for the past several years. I understand how important it is to ensure that the pet feels safe and secure while their favorite humans are out of town, along with keeping their schedule on track. I am currently available most afternoons and weekends. My current schedule is very flexible and can work around most needs and days of the week. I will care for your pets as you would like them to be cared for, whether that is crating at night or making sure they are walked both in the morning and the afternoon.
“Scar jumped in and did a last minute walk for us. They were proactive making sure they knew where to pick our pup up. They communicated well and were on time. Nice pics too. Will book again.”
About: I have had two dogs and one cat: an 11-year-old Bichon Frise, a Chihuahua who passed away at 17, and a cat who is now four and a half years old. I got my first dog when I was 11 years old, and from then on, I spent all of my allowance on my pets’ spay/neuter surgeries, routine checkups, treats, and supplements. I have an unusual amount of patience when it comes to animals, because I grew up in a family that truly loves them. I also have a lot of experience caring for very young pets under two months old, as well as experience being around large dogs. My work schedule is three days in the office and two days remote, so I have plenty of time to do the part time job during the week. When I take care of pets, I focus not only on their physical needs, but also on making sure they feel emotionally cared for. I like to keep a regular routine for them every day, including dedicated playtime and treat time. I also often buy them new toys and talk to them about my day, even though they may not fully understand.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - North Decatur
Nima is the absolute best! I couldn’t recommend her enough. I know that Lilly is taken care of each week by the sweetest human ever. She’s always tracking their walks, taking pictures, and sending updates! Her communication and thoughtfulness are unmatched. We are so thankful for you, Nima! :)
Scar is always reliable, highly communicative, friendly, and amazing with our doggies. I was nervous about whether our younger dog would be ok with someone else walking him, but he’s done great with Scar and is calmer and happier after visits from their friend. Our dogs are always happy to see them and come home from their walks satisfied and happy to get a few treats and pets from Scar. Our neighbor suggested Scar and I’ve since recommended them to another friend. So glad to have a new, reliable pet sitter we like and trust with our babies and our home.
Ella was an outstanding dog walker for our pup. She was always prompt, caring, and communicative. She managed to craft unique messages each day, keeping us updated while we traveled, and took great pics. This resulted in worry-free travel for us and a great experience for our senior pup.
Georga is great and my dogs loved the time and cuddles they spent with her! She was amazing with my timid pup and my very enthusiastic/loud pup. She was awesome about sending updates and playing with both my pups and cats! I really appreciate all the care Georga took of them and I felt great knowing they were with her.
It’s our last week with Solange and we are so sad. I would not have stopped if we didn’t move. She has so been attentive and caring with my dog on walks for the past year. Takes the cutest pics which is a plus. She's been flexible when possible and always has good communication. Would recommend her services in a heartbeat.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your North Decatur. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in North Decatur. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
